Most carbon fiber parts we sell are "wet" carbon fiber, this means they have that "wet" glossy look, the only exception to this is then the product specifically states "dry". Dry carbon is usually lighter than wet carbon but has a dull flat finish. Most carbon fiber parts are reinforced with a FRP underside. When installing Carbon Fiber hoods make sure you are using hood pins and do not use hydraulic arms to prop open hoods and trunks as they can warp the light weight components over time. Carbon fiber parts may require modifications such as: Drilling of holes / cutting / sanding / fixing cracks / buffing to eliminate scratches, etc. Ships direct from the manufacturer or a distributor. Manufactured with a marine gelcoat variant to help prolong the life against UV aging effects.
